GLOBEC – Pan Regional Synthesis

•“The importance of comparative analysis in U.S. GLOBEC for pan-regional synthesis has been recognized from the inception of the program. Comparison of the dynamics of closely related taxa selected as target species in relation to specific physical processes (including stratification, mechanisms of retention and loss, upwelling and downwelling, and cross-front exchange) will be an integral component of the overall synthesis and integration effort in U.S. GLOBEC.”
